Santa Clause and the Mon .e.

One Christmas Eve, when Santa Claus
Came To 4 te;tain house.
To nil the childTen'S stockings tn ere.
He found little mouse.
"A merry Christmas, little friend"
Said Santa, good and kind.
The same to you, sir" said the mOnse;
II thought !oI wouldn't mind
II / should stay awake tonight,
And watch you for 4 while"
"Iou're very welcome, little mouse"
Said Santa with Il smile.
And then he filed the stockings up,
Before the mouse could wink
From top TO toe. from toe TO top,
There wasn't left 4 chink.
"Now they won't hold another thing y
Said Santa Claus, with pride.
A twinkle came in mOuse's eyes,
But humbly he replied.
Its not polite to contradict
Your pardon im9lore-
But in the fullest stocking there,
could put one thing more"
"Oh. no! laughed Santa, "silly mouse.
Don't l know how TO pack?
BY filling stockings al these years,
i should have learned the knack."
And then he took the stocking down,
From where il hung SO high,
And said: "How put in.One thing more;
give YOU leave to try
The mouse chuckled to himself,
And then he softly stole,
Right to the stockings crowded toe
Ank gnawed a little hole!
"Now, If you please, good Santa Claus
I've put in one thing more;
For YOU will own that little hole
Was not in there before
How Santa Claus did laugh and laugh
And then he gayiv spoke:
"Welll you shall have a Christmas
